Despite releasing 3 years ago, Fortnite is still one of the most popular games in the world. Even though the battle royale witnessed a steady downfall in its user-base at the beginning of Chapter 2, it has risen to prominence yet again.

To say that the number of collaborations with other brands has played a huge role in Fortnite’s ever-growing success would be an understatement.

The ongoing Chapter 2 Season 5 is a perfect example of the same. From the Mandalorian to Predator, several bounty hunters from popular games and film franchises have arrived on the Fortnite island.

The latest characters to make the list are Ripley and the Xenomorph from Alien. Apparently, Agent Jonesy teleported to LV-426, the home to a colony of Xenomorphs, and brought back the endoparasitoid extraterrestrial being and the exceptional Warrant Officer with him.

Fortnite informed the fans about the new bounty hunters through a blog post and a tweet:

The cosmetic sets for Ripley and the Xenomorph are now available in the Item Shop, and contain the following items:

• Xenomorph skin
• Xenomorph Trail Back Bling
• Xeno Menace built-in Emote
• Ripley outfit
• Ripley Nostromo Crew outfit variant
• Weyland-Utani Cat Carrier (along with Jonesy the Cat)

Furthermore, there’s a Space Gear bundle that comprises these exciting items:

• P-500 Power Loader Arm Pickaxe
• Cheyenne Dropship Glider
• Burst Case Scenario Emote

Interestingly, Predator is currently living like a boss on Fortnite island. The arrival of Xenomorph has now opened up a possibility for Epic Games to recreate the historical crossover between the Alien and Predator franchises.

Hence, a battle between Predator and Xenomorph as bosses before Chapter 2 Season 5 of Fortnite ends won’t be a surprise.
